Adeline
Mystery told through transcripts of email, phone messages and various documents, follows the tenants of a newly renovated pub in the English countryside where their weekly quiz event disrupted by the arrival of a new mysterious team and by a tragic accident.
Since I’m on holiday I’ll keep my review short and spoiler-free.
Janice Hallett always delivers cozy clever mysteries in a fun, fast paced format, and I’ve got to say I liked this sixth book of hers.
I really liked the pub setting and the quizz themed story.
The twists were satisfying especially those right at the end!
I liked how the characters aren’t perfect but compelling though the cast were a bit too numerous and some didn’t add anything substantial to the plot.
Some parts involving flashbacks I wasn’t super into it and found them a bit tedious. I feel the story dragged a bit towards the second half of the book even if the twists at the end made it up.
Overall, though not my favourite in her rooster, this was another good and fun novel by Janice Hallett.
